Thank you, but in all fairness any credit belongs to my son. Everything in that display recovered from small to tiny pieces left after our first winter in Florida in 2022. I don't know what I was thinking, but I was thought that I could monitor remotely and have my son do certain tasks when...
Almost done with Gavin’s first tank (that isn’t mine that he’s been managing). Pond armor doesn’t smell nearly as bad compared to other epoxy I’ve used, but we were still stumbling after tonight…
It’s useful stuff. You can make bends without slowing down flow like a 90 elbow would. Plus if you bump into it it’s unlikely to break like straight pvc could.
We’re getting there. Need to build the overflow box, cut out the side for the overflow box, mount then epoxy and fiberglass. 2 gallons of pond armor may might be a bit rough in a 20x10ft room. Prolly wait till next Friday for that.
Well not exactly my tank, but one of my boys is building his first in a series of frag tanks for his new aquaculture business. I’m pretty stoked for him!
It’s 4x8 @ 16 inches water depth. Should hold about 320 gallons with a 150 gallon sump. it’s perfect timing as it seems my display tank...
I dont leave the skimmer off, I set it to off for a few hours after dosing. Carbon should be off too if you run it. I'd also take any oxydator out until finished (I'm not sure if this would effect it, but I take it out when using just in case).
I buy off the web. I grind up a 500mg pill and dissolve in RODI water and dose daily with the skimmer off for a week or so. I forget the exact dillution. There is a long thread on it on R2R, better reading that then winging it.
